Abstract

Methods and systems for enrolling a user in an authentication program. In some embodiments, voice interaction that includes a request or command is received from a user. The user may be requested to provide authentication information to fulfill the request or command made during the voice interaction. The user may be authenticated using a first authentication method. The user may be passively enrolled into an authentication program that uses a second authentication method. Enrolling may include deriving characteristics of the user's voice from the voice interaction. After the user is enrolled in the authentication program, the second authentication method may be used to authenticate the user prior to fulfilling requests or commands made during voice navigation.
